THE REASONS WHY WE LOVE PORTABLE BUILDINGS
23 November 2021

With the rising demand for affordable and secure housing units, people are increasingly turning towards options like portable buildings. With the cost and space-effective solutions offered by portable buildings, we understand why is the popularity of these soaring by the day. Looking for one good reason to consider this option?


Here’s bringing you five reasons why we absolutely love portable buildings (and you should too!)


1. The speed of construction

A portable building takes at least thirty to sixty percent less time to get completed compared to a permanent structure made for the same purpose. So, there is no unnecessary delay or waste of time in shifting to your home or office space.


2. Keeping the costs down

The materials used for constructing these buildings are bought in bulk, and that saves money. Factory labor to assemble portable buildings is way cheaper than having on-site teams. So, all in all, you have to shell out fewer bucks this way.


3. Keeping the earth happy

The temporary buildings are completely reusable. Since they are made off-site, all the extra materials are saved up by the facility for using in the next construction. Thus, there is a significant reduction in waste generation, which makes it an eco-friendly option.


4. Meeting the deadlines

So, you need an office space urgently. You have a strict deadline within which you will have to move. Or maybe, it is the nature of your business that you need to keep relocating time and again. These temporary buildings are the solutions you need in that case.


5. The flexibility factor

Making alterations to the structure or adding more space to it becomes a lot easier when you have a portable building. It becomes way too costly and troublesome when you think about doing the same with a permanent structure.

Businesses of all kinds must work hard to interact with their customers and clients, helping to build lasting relationships that lead to an increase in revenue. Marketing can come in a variety of forms, including digital, print and in-person, where it is important to reach out to a broad audience in order to get your business on the map. Sometimes, an in-person interaction is the most effective way of conveying information, in order to build connections and boost the success of a commercial endeavour. In this context, a portable, modular building can make a big difference, where these spaces can function as multi-purpose marketing suites for all kinds of industries. Read on to find out more about how a marketing suite could benefit your business. What is a Marketing Suite? A portable marketing suite is a distinct type of modular building, where these structures can be installed in one pre-fabicated piece. Alternatively, modular suites can consist of several connected units, rapidly creating a larger space. Like other kinds of modular buildings, portable marketing suits are designed to be temporary, and can function in a pop-up capacity instead of as a long-term structure. Their temporary nature allows for quick builds to solve short-term needs, without the cost or planning restrictions that come with permanent structures. In particular, marketing suites can be used to promote the products and services offered by a business. They can also be used as a temporary hub to greet clients or to host events, with interiors that can be customised according to various business needs. What Industries Could Use a Marketing Suite? Lots of different industries could benefit from a portable marketing suite, where this multi-purpose space can be adapted to suit a variety of commercial requirements. Property For businesses in the property industry, having a temporary marketing space can be incredibly useful when it comes to showcasing floor plans or offering information about a new development. Some estate agents, site developers and property investors may also wish to install a temporary office near a new build site to allow for effective communication and project management. Events The events and hospitality sector could also benefit from a portable marketing suite. This space may be used to promote events, share information or register guests. For large events, a portable suite may also come in handy as a dedicated VIP area. Retail For retail businesses, a marketing suite could be used as a space for product displays and demonstrations, or to promote a new service. Additionally e-commerce businesses may wish to utilise a portable suite if they would like to do some in-person networking or product launches. Education A modular marketing suite can also be used by businesses in the education sector, as a versatile space for hosting on-site training or recruitment events. Healthcare  If healthcare organisations need to advertise core services or introduce new health programmes into a remote community, then a marketing suite can help. These buildings can also be used for community meetings and for annual vaccinations.
